Tips for Buying Hosiery Online

Tips for Buying Hosiery Online

Choosing what we wear on our legs is just as important as the rest of the ensemble we put together. And thanks to the many advances in the fashion industry, we have a wide selection of the best choices in hosiery. Here are a few expert tips for buying hosiery online.

Find a Dedicated Site

You want to start your journey by traveling to a site that is dedicated to legwear. They are the experts, after all. We have a vast selection of high-quality hosiery you will love. You can also take in our knowledge and expertise when it comes to finding the best hosiery for your body type. 

Look for Variety

You also want to purchase hosiery from an online site that offers the variety you need. You might be in the wrong place if you can’t find pantyhose and tights in the same online store as your thigh highs and stay up stockings. You also want to make sure there is some variety in the different styles, sizes, colors, and patterns you choose.

Check the Size Chart

Size charts are always helpful when estimating the size you may need for hosiery online. Our size charts give several measurements to pinpoint the right size. You may consider sizing up to avoid aggravating waistband rolling if you are in between sizes. 

Thicker Means Stronger

If the legwear you choose is thicker, it will be stronger and much more durable than most sheer options. However, remember that the thicker they are, the less leg you show. Always consider the thickness of the legwear you purchase online. 

Thicker legwear is also good for hiding any imperfections you may have. To understand the denier of your hosiery, you need to consider its opacity. 

Understand the Differences

It is also important to understand the difference between the different hosiery types, so you purchase exactly what you need. For example, stockings are a true classic. They cover your leg up to mid-thigh and are often reserved for special occasions.

On the other hand, tights tend to be sheer and more skin tight. They can easily dress up your legs while showing them off in the best way. 

There you have it. These are just a few tips you can keep in mind when browsing hosiery online. For a high-quality selection of everything you may need to dress up or upgrade your wardrobe, visit us at hosieree.com today.

Legwear Trend Forecast for the Fall and Winter: What to Expect

1 Comment

With Fall and Winter just around the corner, it is time to take a look at the legwear trend forecast to see what we can expect in the upcoming seasons.

Graphic Accents

The first trend is graphic accents. Fun designs and accents can add playfulness to any outfit and can showcase our unique personalities. Designs can also add more energy and go far beyond functionality. It also teeters on fitness, fashion, and athleisure.

Metallic Shine

Shimmer is also in this year. If you want to make a statement and use your style to stand out, you can do just that with some metallic shine. Metallic shine tights are fun and sexy while also being elegant and stylish. They give you a smoother look and extra comfort. 

Floral Prints

A trend that is continuing from the year before is floral prints. Flower designs and colors can give you more vibrancy, life, and joy. You can choose from classic floral designs in black or go for something more contemporary with a geometric floral design. 

Plaid

Plaid is also in this season. Plaid is timeless and rugged but still feminine and stylish. It is a time-honored pattern that will dress up any outfit you have this fall and winter. Choose plaids in different patterns and play around with different clothing combinations to create a fun and mismatched look.

Animal Prints

Animal prints have been around for a while and show no signs of going away. We have seen many animal print hosiery and clothing items on the runway and have taken those looks and recreated them to use in our everyday wardrobe. These prints can be bold and will certainly attract some attention. 

Knee Socks

Knee high socks are good for casual and everyday wear and are a trend we love seeing stick around. Knee highs can dress up any outfit and give you more of a stylish edge. Some can even add some retro flair to your style. They are versatile as well and go great with shorts, dresses, heels, boots, and anything casual or dressy you want to wear during the fall and winter months. 

Polka Dots

Polka dot hosiery is another trend we see evolving. It is the look that keeps on giving and goes with almost everything. The best part? They also suit most leg types. Let your legs do all the talking when wearing polka dots or other patterned tights or hosiery. Polka dots work best with a muted color palette.

Stockings Are The Hottest Trend Coming Out Of Fashion Week

Stockings Are The Hottest Trend Coming Out Of Fashion Week

Stockings are back in a big way this season and were seen in looks all over the runways of Paris, Milan, and New York. We saw classic tweed pieces paired with thigh-high sheer white stockings in Paris. Milan runways featured knee-high sheer black stockings layered under ankle boots. While designers in New York showed jet black thigh high stockings with textures. Luckily, you don’t have to pay fashion house prices to add these trending looks to your closet.

What Is The Difference Between Pantyhose And Stockings?

People often use pantyhose and stockings interchangeably. However, there is a major difference between the two garments. Pantyhose are sheer and usually made of nylon with a denier weight between 8 and 30. They cover the full leg from the toe to the waistband. Stockings on the other hand can be sheer or opaque and range in denier weight. The key difference though is stockings vary in length between under the knee to mid-thigh. They are either secured with a garter belt or have a lining at the top to hold them in place.

Get The Look

Now that you know the difference between pantyhose and stockings, here is how you can get the runway looks. These options offer the same high-end designer quality but at a much more affordable price point:

Trasparenze Sara Classic Sheer: These sheer stockings have a denier of 20. They also have a reinforced toe and a glossy finish which makes them a perfect wardrobe staple. They come in a variety of colors to achieve the perfect look.

Elly Knee-Highs 140 Semi-Opaque: Available in black and two shades of nude tones, these knee-highs are a perfect way to capture the looks of the Milan runways. They are semi-opaque with a denier weight of 140. Great for everyday wear, these knee highs have a graduated compression that slims the legs and provides a comfortable wear.

Fiore Malena Suspender Stockings: If you are looking for a statement piece for your wardrobe, these sheer spotted tights are a must-have. Available in a gorgeous shade of ecru, they will easily match any outfit while still adding a bit of interest.

These three options are just some of the great choices available at Hoisieree.com. We offer a full range of stockings in every color, size, and denier weight you can imagine. All of our stockings are European-grade, so they are durable and will last you through this season and many more. The best part is they are affordably priced so you can get runway looks without runway prices.

Here are a few reasons why you don’t want to find yourself without this fashion staple.

If you have a ton of floral items in your closet that you don’t feel are appropriate for after September, then you definitely want to have a pair of black tights on hand. You can combine a blazer or cardigan with black tights and open-toed shoes. Or you can pair your black tights with a summery-like dress with a blazer to dial down the spring and still play within fall and winter attire.

4 Ways to Style Your Leggings

The Ins and Outs of Color Blocking

One of the biggest requests in the fashion world is learning how to style your leggings the right way. If you have been afraid to pull out your favorite leggings out of fear that you aren’t wearing or styling them the right way, then you have definitely stumbled upon the right place.

Today we will talk about 4 ways to style your leggings to give you back that power and confidence you should have when it comes to your wardrobe.

1. The Look of Denim

Denim is a classic look that is still being embraced today. If you are a lover of all things denim, then pull out those leggings and make a pair to remember. You can pair black leggings with a colorful t-shirt, denim jacket, and sneakers. Or you can dress up the look by pairing black leggings with a tunic and a darker wash denim jacket with your favorite heels or wedges.

2. Pull Out the Leather

A bit more daring? Then pull out your favorite leather leggings and pair them with an oversized sweater for comfort and style. Accessorize to dress up this look with a long necklace and your favorite pair of heels. A long, silky top or another shirt that is long enough to work as a dress are also great choices for this look.

3. How To Be More Versatile

Leggings are a great wardrobe staple because of their versatility. So, learn how to wear that one pair of leggings in multiple ways to stretch your wardrobe even further. A flared dress, belt, leggings, and wedged heels is a dressy way to rock those leggings.

A blazer, fitted dress, leggings, and pumps make a great casual work outfit. And a fitted skirt, oversized sweater, leggings, and ankle boots make for the best autumn/winter attire for everyday wear and comfort.

4. Don’t Be Afraid to Stand Out

Have a bold pair of leggings like sequined gold or a reptile skin pattern? If you want something bold, sparkly, shiny, or fun for a night out, pair your leggings with a sleeveless top and a more conservative jacket, and you are sure to stand out.

As you can see, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to styling your leggings. With various colors, styles, and patterns in your wardrobe, the possibilities are endless.

3 Reasons Why Leggings Make Great Loungewear

How many pairs of leggings do you own? They are great legwear to have in any wardrobe because they are incredibly versatile and comfortable. However, you don’t even have to find ways to dress your leggings up for a day out; you can also enjoy your leggings at home as all-day loungewear.

Not Restricting

When lounging around at home, we want to be comfortable and feel unrestricted, right? That isn’t easy to do in a pair of stiff jeans. Yes, we can throw on some pajama bottoms, but sometimes we want to also feel a bit more put together than that  even while just lounging at home. This is where leggings step in and save the day.

Leggings won’t dig into your skin, cause any chafing, or prove to be uncomfortable at all. You will also find it incredibly satisfying pulling them up compared to fighting with a pair of jeans.

They Always Fit

Quarantine life leave you with a few extra pounds? Well, leggings don’t take notice. While your other pants might feel a bit tight these days, you will always smile when putting on a great pair of leggings. They won’t be too tight, and they will prove to be comfortable no matter what.

Natural Range of Motion

Another reason leggings make great loungewear is because they allow you to maintain a natural range of motion. You can stretch out on the couch, do a few yoga poses, or break out into dance. The movement possibilities are endless.

As you can see, leggings really are the new loungewear  when you want them to be. We also can’t forget that they are also totally acceptable as part of our going out ensemble as well, especially when we want to show off that new loose-fitting top we bought online while lounging on the couch in our leggings.

The Controversial Side of Leggings

The Controversial Side of Leggings

We have all probably heard legging and tight horror stories over the years. Maybe someone was wearing leggings that were just too see-through, or they paired their legwear with the wrong top. When wearing leggings and other legwear, the key is knowing when and when not to rock this style.

Today we will look at the more controversial side of leggings and tell you how to properly wear your favorite legwear.

Know the Difference

The first step in wearing your legwear correctly is knowing the difference between the different types. 

Tights: This is a piece of clothing that is often made of a thicker material compared to pantyhose and fits closely over the feet, legs, and waist. 

Holdups: These are stockings or tights held up by sticky material, elastic at the top, or straps. It allows you to achieve the look of tights without having a tight band around your hips. They are comfortable to wear.

Leggings: These are often considered tight and form-fitting and extend from the waist to the ankles. They can be made from various materials, including Lycra, nylon, cotton, or a polyester-cotton blend. 

Stockings: These are often made from a more translucent material and often refer to thigh highs and nylon stockings. They fit closely over the foot and are often held up by garters or a strip at the upper thigh. Holdups are closely related to the stocking. 

How to Wear

Each of these legwear types is certainly a staple for our closet. Leggings are often touted as the most comfortable, but many don’t qualify them as pants. So, we need to be careful about how and where we wear this wardrobe staple.

Leggings

When choosing to wear leggings to work, for example, be sure to pair them with a great top. Leggings are form-fitting, so balance that out with a loose-fitting shirt and cover your behind while hitting your lower thigh area.

Tights

Tights are a great way to show off your legs and look great with a dress or skirt. Match your tights to your skirt or dress or even match them to your shoes. For a classy and elegant look, pair your plain tights with a black dress and heels. 

Holdups

These can be worn when you want to glamorize an everyday outfit. However, keep in mind the length of the dress or skirt you are wearing with them. It needs to be long enough to cover the holdups’ top when you are sitting and standing.

Stockings

Stockings are good for tummy trimming, making a fashion statement, dressing up, or showing off the legs. However, the same kind of rules apply here as they do with holdups. Make sure what you wear covers the top part of the stockings while sitting or standing.
